DECISION PROCESSES IN DRIVING

This report provides a discussion of the concept "decision" and how it could apply to the actions of a driver. Theories of decision behaviour within other contexts are examined as being of possible relevance to the driving case. The problems of research techniques are discussed and, finally, suggestions are made for further research. (A) /TRRL/
